It was striking how many Rhodes Scholars were brought into the high echelons of the Clinton Administration. Obama seems to be going in the same direction.
Why is it that we never hear of Rhodes Scholars being named in the recent GOP administrations? Do they not value intelligence and competence (even over-achievers)?
Easy, the smartest people ALWAYS try to hire those that are SMARTER than they are because they want to be CHALLENGED. Frat boys just hire other frat boys, always looking for the lowest denominator, because they're tired of being the guy setting up the kegger! They DON'T want their opinions and ideas challenged.
